Cat Converter Honeycomb

So if you use your car as a dune buggy, smash it off of rocks, hit potholes, etc. yes you can potentially loose some material.

On the filter minder as shown below, a brand new filter will run in the green indicating that as the engine vacuum drawing fresh air its freely passing through the paper element.

As the paper filter become clogged with dust and other junk the filter minder monitors the vacuum required to pull fresh air into the intake manifold. when the minder reaches into the red zone its like someone had placed a plastic bag over your face. You can no longer breath.

The paper filter element relies on a compression fit, a rubber gasket molded into the top and bottom of the filter must make secure contact to assure there's no leakage. This gasket will not maintain 100 percent of its ability when the paper element becomes clogged there will be some dust passing by.

This fine dust will pass through the engine, causing excessive cylinder and piston ring wear and sandblasting some of the precious metals wash ocat from the catylitic converter as it pass's through to the environment.

Vehicles living in the city driving on pavement experience much less dust than their country cousins, it's all about filter maintenance.

This information has been verified from two assays, one from cats collected in the city and my own from a rural environment. The rural was valued at one third of those coming from the city.

Cat buyers are full of it.

Now I'm going back on vacation.

How much proof do you need, Cody's Lab published this youtube video May of 2016.

Knowledge is POWER.

Cody’s lab YouTube video is hardly proof or knowledge. Some goofy hip millennials making some money on YouTube, that’s all it is.

Platinum from road dust, Veolia cleans up on British streets

By Geert De Clercq
PARIS, Dec 2 (Reuters) - French firm Veolia is recycling precious metals worth 100,000 pounds ($155,000) each year from dust swept off British streets and plans to recover more by opening two new plants.

Every day, catalytic converters in cars spit out minute particles of platinum, palladium and rhodium, which end up in road sweepings gathered by waste recyclers like Veolia.
In the past year, Veolia Environnement’s pilot plant in Ling Hall, close to the central English city of Birmingham, has started to filter out these precious metals from the 40,000 tonnes a year of dust it treats.
“We have a surface mine on our city streets, Estelle Brachlianoff, head of Veolia UK and Ireland, told reporters.
Veolia plans to open two more centres, one close to London and another at a separate location in southern England, to recover precious metals from the 400,000 tonnes of dirt it sweeps off British streets every year.
These could generate 1 million pounds worth of precious metals, it estimates. Veolia is also looking at opening such plants in its domestic French market.
The potential is huge, as Veolia also wants to recycle precious metals from road dirt gathered by other operators, including local authorities.

The primary aim of the three million pound Ling Hall plant is not to mine precious metals, but to remove toxic elements from road debris so that the remaining inert dust can be used in construction and other industries rather than go into landfill.

I watched some of his videos and he has advisors’ commercials before some of his videos start so he is getting money. He also could be getting paid for a large number of views.
